Woke Score
Lower is better
Review
The movie has zero woke themes or messaging. It sticks to a straight heist plot where cop Big Nick teams with thief Donnie and an international crew for a diamond heist. The story pushes no girl power, identity politics, or activist lectures. Female crew leader Jovanna runs the Panthers at first then hands control over with zero unearned dominance or sermons.
